Attached is NewsTicker 1.6, my latest update to my shareware NewsTicker.
Please place it on your wonderful site.

Thanks,
Reuven

Among changes and additions to version 1.6 are:
€ The much awaited keyboard shortcuts are here, but with no UI yet:
- Use Command+Control+Escape to toggle the visibility of the NewsTicker
window.
- Use Command+Control+Right Arrow to load the next site immediately.
- Using the •T keyboard combination when in the Tracked Sites panel of
the Preferences dialog toggles the tracking state of all
currently-selected sites (those being tracked will not be tracked and
vice-versa).
€ The Ticker Appearance panel now has a checkbox which can turn on or
off the underlining of headlines.
€ More control over Tracked Site Information.
€ NewsTicker now supports a ³Local² preferences file (one placed next to
the NewsTicker application). This enables running more than one copy of
NewsTicker on the same machine with different settings.
(I use this to have one copy track stocks, another copy to track news.
Maybe in the future a third copy could track email...)
€ Faster site switching using a sub menu of the contextual menu which
enables switching between all tracked sites.
€ The NewsTicker window has more anchoring options.
